Music department drums up competition Band students had a “simply” complete year. They started off their season with three summer parades. Freshmen through seniors marched at Nebraska Land Days in June, at the State Fair, and the Custer County Fair Parade in August. Through tho months of September, October, and November, the band performed at Cornfest, Harvest of Harmony, and many home football games. The band also had the pleasure of playing for three state football playoff games. Three band members: Kristy Steele, flute; Tammy McFall, trumpet; and Chris Horner, tenor saxophone, tried out for All State Band in Ogallala. In December, the band’s Christmas concert highlighted their year, as they performed pieces including the Nutcracker Suite. In March, BBHS hosted South West Conference, and also held the Mid-Winter Concert. The year was topped off with the District Music Contest in April and Commencement in May. The band also saw seven new faces. Seven girls accompanied the band with flags and dance routines. They included senior, captain Julie Sybrant; juniors: Linda Bristol, Sue Neal, and Kristy Steele; sophomore: Becky McQuitty; and Freshmen: Mandi Books and Ginger Jungren.

Dialog expands computer curriculum Begin, search, type, and logoff sounded familiar to students who used Dialog last year. Dialog is a computer company in Palamalto, California. People from all around the world can dial into Dialog by a computer modem and receive information about any subject they want. It is similar to Reader’s Guide,only on disk. Broken Bow High School purchased a copy of Dialog’s many programs for students and teachers to use. Mr. Ingram stated that, “Schools that have Dialog make the library’s use endless.’’ Classroom Instruction Program (CIP) is the name of the program at BBHS. This program was limited to students and teachers for classroom assignments only. When Dialog was used, the student was required to have a supervising teacher there for help. After they were through, a form had to bo filled out telling what information they received, and how long the student used Dialog. Many may think that the time is not important, but the use of Dialog costs $15 per hour and the time must be recorded for the school’s records. Many students and teachers found Dialog useful, especially the Current Issues class taught by Mr. Blackburn. “There is a lot of information available. It is also good because you do not have to be a big city to get a lot of information,” Mr. Blackburn said.
